Consensus: Though this cheerleader comedy has an intriguing premise, it's too empty-headed and saddled with too many lame jokes to live up to it. Also, some critics say the movie is irresponsible in its depiction of teens and guns.

Top CriticThe best thing that can be said about the Minnesota- made comedy Sugar & Spice is that there's no reference to the fact that it was made in Minnesota.

Top CriticNot in the same clever league as Bring It On.
02/06/01
Top CriticIt's fun in its raunchy unwieldiness.

Top CriticThere are mucho storytelling dodges and gaping plot holes that make Sugar barely watchable.

Top CriticA laugh-out-loud winter's treat.

Top CriticIt means to be knowing and cynical but is just callow.
01/29/01
Top CriticA frothy motion picture that offers moments of guilty pleasure but isn't good enough to earn a recommendation.
01/29/01
Top CriticYou get the feeling that it's bad on purpose, which makes it, given the number of teenage movies that are terrible by accident, not bad at all.
01/29/01
Top CriticAmusingly subversive, thanks to sharp writing and direction.
01/29/01
Top CriticAbout as good as you'd expect. But never as good as you'd prefer.

Top CriticWatching a teen flick as morally bankrupt as Sugar & Spice ... you have to wonder if Hollywood is really getting the message about gratuitous film violence.

Top CriticA setup stretched as thinly over feature length as the average movie-bound Saturday Night Live sketch.

Top CriticIt's brightly diverting enough most of the time to get it past its shortfall.
01/26/01
Top CriticIt's alive and risky and saucy.
01/26/01
Top CriticA surprising amount of the humor stems from well-drawn caricatures and cleverly seeded payoffs.
